My friend doesn’t allow me in his room…

I met this guy at a Ghanaian convention a few years ago. We became friends and exchanged numbers. Since then we’ve been in contact through the phone, facetime and text messages. At the convention I noticed he was quite selective at who he engaged in conversations with and while he was friendly, he wasn’t social or outgoing. He even revealed to me he has little to no friends ( which I’m not judging because I have only one other person I see as a real friend) He also mentioned how he has the ability to socialize but doesn’t really like to.

Anyway he told me he loved traveling and had been to many countries and I told him when he goes that he should let me know because I love traveling. A few years later we came to the conclusion that we’d like to meet up and hang out. He lives in Connecticut and I live in Minnesota. He gave me the option to visit him at his place in Connecticut or come spend the weekend with him and his parents in Florida in their family house.

I decided to go to Florida. While there I had a good time and he showed me around the city of Orlando. But I noticed that my whole stay there he never invited me into his room. I felt almost like an outcast or stranger. I stayed in a room in the basement part of his parents house and there was a lot of space there. Very comfortable and spacious area. He would come down there and hang out with me often when we weren’t doing anything and watch TV, listen to music etc. (Until he got tired and went to sleep). But never had me chill with him in his room. His parents were nice and friendly and I never felt out of my place.

But it always felt weird that as his friend I never came to his room and the last thing I would do is just walk into his room when he never invited me. Is this normal? What could that mean? If I invited him to my house I’d definitely have him chilling in my room as much as he wants.
